‘Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown’ game review

Jordan Mechner’s 1989 Prince of Persia remains an unforgettable classic, praised for its fluid rotoscoped animation and swashbuckling swordplay. Since then, the unnamed prince has embarked on several reboots, with The Sands of Time introducing Ubisoft’s signature parkour and time-bending mechanics, later echoing in the Assassin’s Creed series. The game’s time disruptions create visually interesting platforming challenges, adding variety to the story. The Lost Crown follows the Metroidvania style, offering large, interconnected levels that require exploration to unlock new paths.
